Note 1 - Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Horizon Bancorp (“Horizon” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Horizon Bank (“Horizon Bank” or the “Bank”). Horizon Bank (formerly known as “Horizon Bank, N.A.”) was a national association until its conversion to an Indiana commercial bank effective June 23, 2017. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year of 2017 or 2016. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of Horizon’s management, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Horizon for the periods presented. Those adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in Horizon’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Horizon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2017. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of Horizon as of December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited balance sheet as of that date.

On October 18, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a three-for-two stock split of the Company’s authorized common stock, no par value. All share and per share amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted, where necessary, to reflect this three-for-two stock split. The effect of the three-for-two stock split on the outstanding common shares is that shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 31, 2016, the record date, received an additional half share of common stock held, with shareholders receiving cash in lieu of any fractional shares. The additional shares issued in the stock split were issued on November 14, 2016, and the common shares began trading on a split-adjusted basis on or about November 15, 2016.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (net income less dividend requirements for preferred stock and accretion of preferred stock discount) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

⁽¹⁾	Adjusted for 3:2 stock split on November 14, 2016

There were zero shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 which were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were non-dilutive.

Horizon has share-based employee compensation plans, which are described in the notes to the financial statements included in the December 31, 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2016 condensed consolidated financial statements to be comparable to 2017. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.

Note 2 – Acquisitions

Kosciusko Financial, Inc.

On June 1, 2016, Horizon completed the acquisition of Kosciusko Financial, Inc., an Indiana corporation (“Kosciusko”) and Horizon Bank’s acquisition of Farmers State Bank, a state-chartered bank and wholly owned subsidiary of Kosciusko, through mergers effective June 1, 2016. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of Kosciusko had the option to receive $81.75 per share in cash or 4.5183 shares of Horizon common stock for each share of Kosciusko’s common stock, subject to allocation provisions to assure that in aggregate, Kosciusko shareholders received total consideration that consisted of 65% stock and 35% cash. Kosciusko shareholders owning fewer than 100 shares of common stock received $81.75 in cash for each common share. As a result of Kosciusko stockholder stock and cash elections and the related proration provisions of the Merger Agreement, Horizon issued 873,430 shares of its common stock in the merger. Based upon the June 1, 2016 closing price of $16.57 per share of Horizon common stock, the transaction has an implied valuation of approximately $23.0 million. The Company has had approximately $1.6 million in costs related to the acquisition. These expenses are classified in the non-interest expense section of the income statement and primarily located in the salaries and employee benefits, professional

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

services and other expense line items. As a result of the acquisition, the Company was able to increase its deposit base and reduce transaction costs. The Company also expects to reduce costs through economies of scale.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to net tangible and intangible assets based on their current estimated fair values on the date of the acquisition. Based on preliminary valuations of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are based on assumptions that are subject to change, the purchase price for the Kosciusko acquisition is detailed in the following table. The final valuation numbers were received in September 2016 which changed the goodwill estimate from $6.9 million to $6.4 million.


ASSETS			LIABILITIES

Common shares issued	$	14,470
Cash paid		8,513

Total estimated purchase price	$	22,983

Of the total estimated purchase price of $23.0 million, $526,000 has been allocated to core deposit intangible. Additionally, $6.4 million has been allocated to goodwill and none of the purchase price is deductible. The core deposit intangible will be amortized over ten years on a straight line basis.

The Company acquired loans in the acquisition and the transferred loans had evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments would not be collected.

Loans purchased with evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable that all contractually required payments will not be collected are considered to be credit impaired. Evidence of credit quality deterioration as of the purchase date may include information such as past-due and non-accrual status, borrower credit scores and recent loan-to-value percentages. Purchased credit-impaired loans are accounted for under the accounting guidance for loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality (ASC 310-30) and initially measured at fair value, which includes estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loan. Accordingly, an allowance for credit losses related to these loans is not carried over and recorded at the acquisition date. Management estimated the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition using our internal risk models, which incorporate the estimate of current key assumptions, such as default rates, severity and prepayment speeds.

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

Loans with specific credit-related deterioration, since origination, are recorded at fair value, reflecting the present value of the amounts expected to be collected. Income recognition of these loans is based on reasonable expectation about the timing and amount of cash flows to be collected.

The following table details the acquired loans that are accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30 as of June 1, 2016.

LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. On July 18, 2016, Horizon completed the acquisition of LaPorte Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“LaPorte Bancorp”) and Horizon Bank’s acquisition of The LaPorte Savings Bank, a state-chartered savings bank and wholly owned subsidiary of LaPorte Bancorp, through mergers effective July 18, 2016. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of LaPorte Bancorp had the option to receive $17.50 per share in cash or 0.9435 shares of Horizon common stock for each share of LaPorte Bancorp’s common stock, subject to allocation provisions to assure that in aggregate, LaPorte Bancorp shareholders received total consideration that consisted of 65% stock and 35% cash. As a result of LaPorte Bancorp stockholder stock and cash elections and the related proration provisions of the Merger Agreement, Horizon issued 3,421,488 shares of its common stock in the merger. Based upon the July 18, 2016 closing price of $18.36 per share of Horizon common stock, less the consideration used to pay off LaPorte’s ESOP loan receivable, the transaction has an implied valuation of approximately $98.6 million. The Company has had approximately $4.0 million in costs related to the acquisition. These expenses are classified in the non-interest expense section of the income statement and primarily located in the salaries and employee benefits, professional services and other expense line items. As a result of the acquisition, the Company was able to increase its deposit base and reduce transaction costs. The Company also expects to reduce costs through economies of scale.

Based on evaluation of available evidence, including recent changes in market interest rates, credit rating information, and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary. While these securities are held in the available for sale portfolio and held-to-maturity, Horizon intends, and has the ability, to hold them until the earlier of a recovery in fair value or maturity.

Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified. At June 30, 2017, no individual investment security had an unrealized loss that was determined to be other-than-temporary.

The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in securities of state and municipal governmental agencies, U.S. Treasury and federal agencies, federal agency collateralized mortgage obligations, and federal agency mortgage-backed pools were caused by interest rate volatility and not a decline in credit quality. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. The Company expects to recover the amortized cost basis over the term of the securities. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, the Company did not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2017.

Loans, net	$	2,252,697		$	2,121,149

Commercial

Commercial loans are primarily based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may incorporate a personal guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers.

Commercial real estate loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves larger loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

affected by conditions in the real estate markets, the general economy or fluctuations in interest rates. The properties securing the Company’s commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of property type, and are monitored for concentrations of credit. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral, cash flow and risk grade criteria. As a general rule, the Company avoids financing single purpose projects unless other underwriting factors are present to help mitigate risk. In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans versus non-owner occupied loans.

Real Estate and Consumer

With respect to residential loans that are secured by 1-4 family residences and are generally owner occupied, the Company generally establishes a maximum loan-to-value ratio and requires private mortgage insurance if that ratio is exceeded. Home equity loans are typically secured by a subordinate interest in 1-4 family residences, and consumer loans are secured by consumer assets such as automobiles or recreational vehicles. Some consumer loans are unsecured such as small installment loans and certain lines of credit. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Repayment can also be impacted by changes in property values on residential properties. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

Mortgage Warehousing

Horizon’s mortgage warehouse lending has specific mortgage companies as customers of Horizon Bank. Individual mortgage loans originated by these mortgage companies are funded as a secured borrowing with a pledge of collateral under Horizon’s agreement with the mortgage company. Each mortgage loan funded by Horizon undergoes an underwriting review by Horizon to the end investor guidelines and is assigned to Horizon until the loan is sold to the secondary market by the mortgage company. In addition, Horizon takes possession of each original note and forwards such note to the end investor once the mortgage company has sold the loan. At the time a loan is transferred to the secondary market, the mortgage company reacquires the loan under its option within the agreement. Due to the reacquire feature contained in the agreement, the transaction does not qualify as a sale and therefore is accounted for as a secured borrowing with a pledge of collateral pursuant to the agreement with the mortgage company. When the individual loan is sold to the end investor by the mortgage company, the proceeds from the sale of the loan are received by Horizon and used to pay off the loan balance with Horizon along with any accrued interest and any related fees. The remaining balance from the sale is forwarded to the mortgage company. These individual loans typically are sold by the mortgage company within 30 days and are seldom held more than 90 days. Interest income is accrued during this period and collected at the time each loan is sold. Fee income for each loan sold is collected when the loan is sold, and no costs are deferred due to the term between each loan funding and related payoff, which is typically less than 30 days.

Based on the agreements with each mortgage company, at any time a mortgage company can reacquire from Horizon its outstanding loan balance on an individual mortgage and regain possession of the original note. Horizon also has the option to request that the mortgage company reacquire an individual mortgage. Should this occur, Horizon would return the original note and reassign the assignment of the mortgage to the mortgage company. Also, in the event that the end investor would not be able to honor the purchase commitment and the mortgage company would not be able to reacquire its loan on an individual mortgage, Horizon would be able to exercise its rights under the agreement.

Note 6 – Allowance for Loan Losses

The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Company over the prior one to five years. Management believes the five-year historical loss experience methodology is appropriate in the current economic environment, as it captures loss rates that are comparable to the current period being analyzed. The actual allowance for loan loss activity is provided below.

Certain loans are individually evaluated for impairment, and the Company’s general practice is to proactively charge down impaired loans to the fair value, which is the appraised value less estimated selling costs, of the underlying collateral.

Consistent with regulatory guidance, charge-offs on all loan segments are taken when specific loans, or portions thereof, are considered uncollectible. The Company’s policy is to promptly charge these loans off in the period the uncollectible loss is reasonably determined.

For all loan portfolio segments except 1-4 family residential properties and consumer, the Company promptly charges-off loans, or portions thereof, when available information confirms that specific loans are uncollectible based on information that includes, but is not limited to, (1) the deteriorating financial condition of the borrower, (2) declining collateral values, and/or (3) legal action, including bankruptcy, that impairs the borrower’s ability to adequately meet its obligations. For impaired loans that are considered to be solely collateral dependent, a partial charge-off is recorded when a loss has been confirmed by an updated appraisal or other appropriate valuation of the collateral.

The Company charges-off 1-4 family residential and consumer loans, or portions thereof, when the Company reasonably determines the amount of the loss. The Company adheres to timeframes established by applicable regulatory guidance which provides for the charge-down or specific allocation of 1-4 family first and junior lien mortgages to the net realizable value less costs to sell when the value is known but no later than when a loan is 180 days past due. Pursuant to such guidelines, the Company also charges-off unsecured open-end loans when the loan is contractually 90 days past due, and charges down to the net realizable value other secured loans when they are contractually 90 days past due. Loans at these respective delinquency thresholds for which the Company can clearly document that the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection, such that collection in full will occur regardless of delinquency status, are not charged off.

Included in the $8.8 million of non-accrual loans and the $668,000 of non-performing TDRs at June 30, 2017 were $3.9 million and $17,000, respectively, of loans acquired for which accretable yield was recognized.

From time to time, the Bank obtains information that may lead management to believe that the collection of payments may be doubtful on a particular loan. In recognition of this, it is management’s policy to convert the loan from an “earning asset” to a non-accruing loan. The entire balance of a loan is considered delinquent if the minimum payment contractually required to be made is not received by the specified due date. Further, it is management’s policy to generally place a loan on a non-accrual status when the payment is delinquent in excess of 90 days or the loan has had the accrual of interest discontinued by management. The officer responsible for the loan and the Chief Credit Officer and/or the Chief Operations Officer must review all loans placed on non-accrual status. Subsequent payments on non-accrual loans are recorded as a reduction of principal, and interest income is recorded only after principal recovery is reasonably assured. Non-accrual loans are returned to accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the financial position of the borrower indicates there is no longer any reasonable doubt as to the timely collection of interest or principal in accordance with the loan terms. The Company requires a period of satisfactory performance of not less than six months before returning a non-accrual loan to accrual status.

A loan becomes impaired when, based on current information, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When a loan is classified as impaired, the degree of impairment must be recognized by estimating future cash flows from the debtor. The present value of these cash flows is computed at a discount rate based on the interest rate contained in the loan agreement. However, if a particular loan has a determinable market value for its collateral, the creditor may use that value. Also, if the loan is secured and considered collateral dependent, the creditor may use the fair value of the collateral. Interest income on loans individually classified as impaired is recognized on a cash basis after all past due and current principal payments have been made.

Smaller-balance, homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total. Such loans include residential first mortgage loans secured by 1–4 family residences, residential construction loans, automobile, home equity, second mortgage loans and mortgage warehouse loans. Commercial loans and mortgage loans secured by other properties are evaluated individually for impairment. When analysis of borrower operating results and financial condition indicate that underlying cash flows of a borrower’s business are not adequate to meet its debt service requirements, the loan is evaluated for impairment. Often this is associated with a delay or shortfall in payments of 30 days or more. Loans are generally moved to non-accrual status when they are 90 days or more past due. These loans are often considered impaired. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

Loans for which it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest due according to contractual terms, including TDRs, are measured for impairment. Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include the three methods described above.

The Company’s TDRs are considered impaired loans and included in the allowance methodology using the guidance for impaired loans. At June 30, 2017, the type of concessions the Company has made on restructured loans has been temporary rate reductions and/or reductions in monthly payments and there have been no restructured loans with modified recorded balances. Any modification to a loan that is a concession and is not in the normal course of lending is considered a restructured loan. A restructured loan is returned to accruing status after six consecutive payments but is still reported as TDR unless the loan bears interest at a market rate. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $2.6 million in TDRs and $1.9 million were performing according to the restructured terms and $301,000 in TDRs were returned to accrual status during the first six months of 2017. There were zero specific reserves allocated to TDRs at June 30, 2017 based on the discounted cash flows or when appropriate the fair value of the collateral.

Horizon Bank’s processes for determining credit quality differ slightly depending on whether a new loan or a renewed loan is being underwritten, or whether an existing loan is being re-evaluated for credit quality. The latter usually occurs upon receipt of current financial information or other pertinent data that would trigger a change in the loan grade.

•

For new and renewed commercial loans, the Bank’s Credit Department, which acts independently of the loan officer, assigns the credit quality grade to the loan. Loan grades for loans with an aggregate credit exposure that exceeds the authorities in the respective markets (ranging from $1,000,000 to $3,500,000) are validated by the Loan Committee, which is chaired by the Chief Credit Officer (CCO).

•

Commercial loan officers are responsible for reviewing their loan portfolios and report any adverse material change to the CCO or Loan Committee. When circumstances warrant a change in the credit quality grade, loan officers are required to notify the CCO and the Credit Department of the change in the loan grade. Downgrades are accepted immediately by the CCO, however, lenders must present their factual information to either the Loan Committee or the CCO when recommending an upgrade.

•

The CCO, or his designee, meets weekly with loan officers to discuss the status of past-due loans and classified loans. These meetings are also designed to give the loan officers an opportunity to identify an existing loan that should be downgraded to a classified grade.

•

Monthly, senior management meets with the Watch Committee, which reviews all of the past due, classified, and impaired loans and the relative trends of these assets. This committee also reviews the actions taken by management regarding foreclosure mitigation, loan extensions, troubled debt restructures, other real estate owned and personal property repossessions. The information reviewed in this meeting acts as a precursor for developing management’s analysis of the adequacy of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.

For residential real estate and consumer loans, Horizon uses a grading system based on delinquency. Loans that are 90 days or more past due, on non-accrual, or are classified as a TDR are graded “Substandard.” After being 90 to 120 days delinquent a loan is charged off unless it is well secured and in the process of collection. If the latter case exists, the loan is placed on non-accrual. Occasionally a mortgage loan may be graded as “Special Mention.” When this situation arises, it is because the characteristics of the loan and the borrower fit the definition of a Risk Grade 5 described below, which is normally used for grading commercial loans. Loans not graded Substandard are considered Pass.

Horizon Bank employs a nine-grade rating system to determine the credit quality of commercial loans. The first five grades represent acceptable quality, and the last four grades mirror the criticized and classified grades used by the bank regulatory agencies (special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss). The loan grade definitions are detailed below.

Risk Grade 1: Excellent (Pass)

Loans secured by liquid collateral, such as certificates of deposit, reputable bank letters of credit, or other cash equivalents; loans that are guaranteed or otherwise backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government or an agency thereof, such as the Small Business Administration; or loans to any publicly held company with a current long-term debt rating of A or better.

Risk Grade 2: Good (Pass)

Loans to businesses that have strong financial statements containing an unqualified opinion from a CPA firm and at least three consecutive years of profits; loans supported by unaudited financial statements containing strong balance sheets, five consecutive years of profits, a five-year satisfactory relationship with the Bank, and key balance sheet and income statement trends that are either stable or positive; loans secured by publicly traded marketable securities where there is no impediment to liquidation; loans to individuals backed by liquid personal assets and unblemished credit history; or loans to publicly held companies with current long-term debt ratings of Baa or better.

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

Risk Grade 3: Satisfactory (Pass)

Loans supported by financial statements (audited or unaudited) that indicate average or slightly below average risk and having some deficiency or vulnerability to changing economic conditions; loans with some weakness but offsetting features of other support are readily available; loans that are meeting the terms of repayment, but which may be susceptible to deterioration if adverse factors are encountered. Loans may be graded Satisfactory when there is no recent information on which to base a current risk evaluation and the following conditions apply:

•

At inception, the loan was properly underwritten, did not possess an unwarranted level of credit risk, and the loan met the above criteria for a risk grade of Excellent, Good, or Satisfactory;

•

At inception, the loan was secured with collateral possessing a loan value adequate to protect the Bank from loss.

•

The loan has exhibited two or more years of satisfactory repayment with a reasonable reduction of the principal balance.

•

During the period that the loan has been outstanding, there has been no evidence of any credit weakness. Some examples of weakness include slow payment, lack of cooperation by the borrower, breach of loan covenants, or the borrower is in an industry known to be experiencing problems. If any of these credit weaknesses is observed, a lower risk grade may be warranted.

Risk Grade 4 Satisfactory/Monitored:

Loans in this category are considered to be of acceptable credit quality, but contain greater credit risk than Satisfactory loans. Borrower displays acceptable liquidity, leverage, and earnings performance within the Bank’s minimum underwriting guidelines. The level of risk is acceptable but conditioned on the proper level of loan officer supervision. Loans that normally fall into this grade include acquisition, construction and development loans and income producing properties that have not reached stabilization.

Risk Grade 4W Management Watch:

Loans in this category are considered to be of acceptable quality, but with above normal risk. Borrower displays potential indicators of weakness in the primary source of repayment resulting in a higher reliance on secondary sources of repayment. Balance sheet may exhibit weak liquidity and/or high leverage. There is inconsistent earnings performance without the ability to sustain adverse economic conditions. Borrower may be operating in a declining industry or the property type, as for a commercial real estate loan, may be high risk or in decline. These loans require an increased level of loan officer supervision and monitoring to assure that any deterioration is addressed in a timely fashion.

Risk Grade 5: Special Mention

Loans which possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness which deserves close attention. Such loans pose an unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan by adversely impacting the future repayment ability of the borrower. The key distinctions of a Special Mention classification are that (1) it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk and (2) weaknesses are considered “potential,” not “defined,” impairments to the primary source of repayment. These loans may be to borrowers with adverse trends in financial performance, collateral value and/or marketability, or balance sheet strength.

Risk Grade 6: Substandard

One or more of the following characteristics may be exhibited in loans classified Substandard:

•

Loans which possess a defined credit weakness. The likelihood that a loan will be paid from the primary source of repayment is uncertain. Financial deterioration is under way and very close attention is warranted to ensure that the loan is collected without loss.

HORIZON BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

•

Loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor.

•

The primary source of repayment is gone, and the Bank is forced to rely on a secondary source of repayment, such as collateral liquidation or guarantees.

•

Loans have a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected.

•

Unusual courses of action are needed to maintain a high probability of repayment.

•

The borrower is not generating enough cash flow to repay loan principal; however, it continues to make interest payments.

•

The lender is forced into a subordinated or unsecured position due to flaws in documentation.

•

Loans have been restructured so that payment schedules, terms, and collateral represent concessions to the borrower when compared to the normal loan terms.

•

The lender is seriously contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to the apparent deterioration in the loan.

•

There is a significant deterioration in market conditions to which the borrower is highly vulnerable.

Risk Grade 7: Doubtful

One or more of the following characteristics may be present in loans classified Doubtful:

•

Loans have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard. However, based on existing conditions, these weaknesses make full collection of principal highly improbable.

•

The primary source of repayment is gone, and there is considerable doubt as to the quality of the secondary source of repayment.

•

The possibility of loss is high but because of certain important pending factors which may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until the exact status of repayment is known.

Risk Grade 8: Loss

Loans are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuing to carry them as assets is not feasible. Loans will be classified Loss when it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

Note 9 – Derivative Financial Instruments

Cash Flow Hedges

As a strategy to maintain acceptable levels of exposure to the risk of changes in future cash flow due to interest rate fluctuations, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements for a portion of its floating rate debt. The agreements provide for the Company to receive interest from the counterparty at three month LIBOR and to pay interest to the counterparty at a weighted average fixed rate of 6.14% on a notional amount of $30.5 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Under the agreements, the Company pays or receives the net interest amount monthly, with the monthly settlements included in interest expense.

The Company assumed additional interest rate swap agreements as the result of the LaPorte acquisition in July 2016. The agreements provide for the Company to receive interest from the counterparty at one month LIBOR and to pay interest to the counterparty at a weighted average fixed rate of 2.31% on a notional amount of $30.0 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Under the agreements, the Company pays or receives the net interest amount monthly, with the monthly settlements included in interest expense.

Management has designated the interest rate swap agreement as a cash flow hedging instrument. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. At June 30, 2017, the Company’s cash flow hedge was effective and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s net income over the next 12 months.

Fair Value Hedges

Fair value hedges are intended to reduce the interest rate risk associated with the underlying hedged item. The Company enters into fixed rate loan agreements as part of its lending policy. To mitigate the risk of changes in fair value based on fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements on individual loans, converting the fixed rate loans to a variable rate. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings. At June 30, 2017, the Company’s fair value hedges were effective and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s net income over the next 12 months.

HORIZON BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

The change in fair value of both the hedge instruments and the underlying loan agreements are recorded as gains or losses in interest income. The fair value hedges are considered to be highly effective and any hedge ineffectiveness was deemed not material. The notional amounts of the loan agreements being hedged were $149.7 million at June 30, 2017 and $122.4 million at December 31, 2016.

Other Derivative Instruments

The Company enters into non-hedging derivatives in the form of mortgage loan forward sale commitments with investors and commitments to originate mortgage loans as part of its mortgage banking business. At June 30, 2017, the Company’s fair value of these derivatives were recorded and over the next 12 months are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s net income.

The change in fair value of both the forward sale commitments and commitments to originate mortgage loans were recorded and the net gains or losses included in the Company’s gain on sale of loans.

Note 10 – Disclosures about Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The Fair Value Measurements topic of the FASB ASC defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:


Level 1		Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2		Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3		Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the period ended June 30, 2017. For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.

Available for sale securities

When quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities, state and municipal securities, federal agency collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed pools and corporate notes. Level 2 securities are valued by a third party pricing service commonly used in the banking industry utilizing observable inputs. Observable inputs include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flow analysis, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment spreads and available credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions. The pricing provider utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary based on asset class. These models incorporate available market information including quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and, because many fixed-income securities do not trade on a daily basis, apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector grouping, and matrix pricing. In addition, model processes, such as an option adjusted spread model, is used to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios for securities with prepayment features.

Hedged loans

Certain fixed rate loans have been converted to variable rate loans by entering into interest rate swap agreements. The fair value of those fixed rate loans is based on discounting the estimated cash flows using interest rates determined by the respective interest rate swap agreement. Loans are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy based on the unobservable inputs used.

Interest rate swap agreements

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements is estimated by a third party using inputs that are primarily unobservable including a yield curve, adjusted for liquidity and credit risk, contracted terms and discounted cash flow analysis, and therefore, are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Certain other assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in the ordinary course of business and are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment):


	Fair Value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
June 30, 2017

December 31, 2016
Impaired loans	$	2,246	$	—	$	—	$	2,246
Mortgage servicing rights		11,174		—		—		11,174

Impaired (collateral dependent): Loans for which it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest due according to contractual terms are measured for impairment. Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include estimating fair value using the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans.

If the impaired loan is identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method of measuring the amount of impairment is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal of the collateral and applying a discount factor to the value.

Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when impairment is determined using the fair value method.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs): MSRs do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the fair value of these assets is classified as Level 3. The Company determines the fair value of MSRs using an income approach model based upon the Company’s month-end interest rate curve and prepayment assumptions. The model utilizes assumptions to estimate future net servicing income cash flows, including estimates of time decay, payoffs and changes in valuation inputs and assumptions. The Company reviews the valuation assumptions against this market data for reasonableness and adjusts the assumptions if deemed appropriate. The carrying amount of the MSRs’ fair value due to impairment decreased by $23,000 during the first six months of 2017 and decreased by $46,000 during the first six months of 2016.

Note 11 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value amounts of the Company’s financial instruments were determined using available market information, current pricing information applicable to Horizon and various valuation methodologies. Where market quotations were not available, considerable management judgment was involved in the determination of estimated fair values. Therefore, the estimated fair value of financial instruments shown below may not be representative of the amounts at which they could be exchanged in a current or future transaction. Due to the inherent uncertainties of expected cash flows of financial instruments, the use of alternate valuation assumptions and methods could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The estimated fair values of financial instruments, as shown below, are not intended to reflect the estimated liquidation or market value of Horizon taken as a whole. The disclosed fair value estimates are limited to Horizon’s significant financial instruments at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. These include financial instruments recognized as assets and liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as well as certain off-balance sheet financial instruments. The estimated fair values shown below do not include any valuation of assets and liabilities, which are not financial instruments as defined by the FASB ASC fair value hierarchy.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash and Due from Banks — The carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Held-to-Maturity Securities — For debt securities held to maturity, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. For those securities where a quoted market price is not available, carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value based upon comparison with similar securities.

Loans Held for Sale — The carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Net Loans — The fair value of portfolio loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The carrying amounts of loans held for sale approximate fair value.

HORIZON BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

FHLB and FRB Stock — Fair value of FHLB and FRB stock is based on the price at which it may be resold to the FHLB and FRB.

Interest Receivable/Payable — The carrying amounts approximate fair value.

Deposits — The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, interest-bearing checking accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturity.

Borrowings — Rates currently available to Horizon for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair values of existing borrowings.

Subordinated Debentures — Rates currently available for debentures with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair values of existing debentures.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit — The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. Due to the short-term nature of these agreements, carrying amounts approximate fair value.

The following table presents estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall (unaudited).

Note 13 – Regulatory Capital

Horizon and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies and are assigned to a capital category. Failure to meet the minimum regulatory capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators, which if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective actions, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines involving quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined), or leverage ratio. For June 30, 2017, Basel III rules require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of common equity Tier I capital (as defined in the regulation) to risk-weighted assets (as defined). Additionally, under Basel III rules, the decision was made to opt-out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital.

To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum Total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, common equity Tier I risk-based (June 30, 2017) and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to be considered well capitalized. There have been no conditions or events since the end of the second quarter of 2017 that management believes have changed the Bank’s classification as well capitalized. There is no threshold for well-capitalized status for bank holding companies.

Note 15 – Business Combinations

On May 23, 2017, Horizon entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for Horizon’s acquisition of Lafayette Community Bancorp (“Lafayette”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Lafayette would merge with and into Horizon, with Horizon surviving the merger (the “Merger”), and Lafayette Community Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lafayette, would merge with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon, Horizon Bank, with Horizon Bank as the surviving bank.

The boards of directors of each of Horizon and Lafayette have approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement. Subject to the approval of the Merger by Lafayette shareholders, regulatory approvals and other closing conditions, the parties anticipate completing the Merger during the third quarter of 2017.

In connection with the Merger, shareholders of Lafayette will receive fixed consideration of 0.5878 shares of Horizon common stock and $1.73 in cash for each share of Lafayette common stock. Shareholders owning less than 100 shares of Lafayette common stock will receive $17.25 in cash for each share. On December 29, 2016, Horizon purchased 90,574 shares, or 4.65%, of Lafayette’s outstanding common stock from a Lafayette shareholder. Based on the closing price of Horizon’s common stock on May 22, 2017 of $25.38 per share, the transaction value for the shares of common stock, owned by shareholders other than Horizon, is approximately $32.0 million.

Subject to certain terms and conditions, the board of directors of Lafayette has agreed to recommend the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement to the Lafayette shareholders and will solicit proxies voting in favor of the Merger from Lafayette’s shareholders.

The Merger Agreement also provides for certain termination rights for both Horizon and Lafayette, and further provides that upon termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, Lafayette will be obligated to pay Horizon a termination fee.

As of March 31, 2017, Lafayette had total assets of approximately $172.1 million and total deposits of approximately $149.2 million and total loans of approximately $135.2 million.

On June 13, 2017, Horizon entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for Horizon’s acquisition of Wolverine Bancorp, Inc. (“Wolverine”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Wolverine would merge with and into Horizon, with Horizon surviving the merger (the “Merger”), and Wolverine Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wolverine, would merge with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon, Horizon Bank, with Horizon Bank as the surviving bank.

The boards of directors of each of Horizon and Wolverine have approved the Merger and the Merger Agreement. Subject to the approval of the Merger by Wolverine shareholders, regulatory approvals and other closing conditions, the parties anticipate completing the Merger during the fourth quarter of 2017.

In connection with the Merger, shareholders of Wolverine will receive fixed consideration of 1.0152 shares of Horizon common stock and $14.00 in cash for each share of Wolverine common stock. Based on the closing price of Horizon’s common stock on June 13, 2017 of $27.50 per share, the transaction value has an implied valuation of approximately $91.8 million.

Subject to certain terms and conditions, the board of directors of Wolverine has agreed to recommend the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement to the Wolverine shareholders and will solicit proxies voting in favor of the Merger from Wolverine’s shareholders.

Note 16 – Future Accounting Matters

Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. These amendments shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments should be applied on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The amendments in this update were adopted on January 1, 2017 and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new guidance is intended to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, the income tax effects of tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the qualitative impairment test is necessary. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle should be disclosed upon transition. The amendments in this update should be adopted for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact.

FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update provide a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. Because the current definition of a business is interpreted broadly and can be difficult to apply, stakeholders indicated that analyzing transactions is inefficient and costly and that the definition does not permit the use of reasonable judgment. The amendments provide more consistency in applying the guidance, reduce the costs of application, and make the definition of a business more operable. The amendments in this update become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The amendments in this update became effective on January 1, 2017 and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The main objective of this amendment is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The amendment requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to enhance their credit loss estimates. The amendment requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The amendments in this update become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption will be permitted beginning after December 15, 2018. We have formed a cross functional committee that is assessing our data and system needs and are evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Acounting

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments are intended to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments and affects all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions are simplified, including the income tax consequences, the classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and the classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this update became effective on January 1, 2017 and resulted in a tax benefit of $19,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases, with the exception of short-term leases, at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. The amendments in this update become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Based on leases outstanding as of December 31, 2016, we do not expect the new standard to have a material impact on our balance sheet or income statement.

FASB Accounting Standards Updates No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The new guidance is intended to improve the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The ASU affects public and private companies, not-for-profit organizations, and employee benefit plans that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities.

The new guidance makes targeted improvements to existing U.S. GAAP by:

•

Requiring equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income;

•

Requiring public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes;

•

Requiring separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements;

•

Eliminating the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for organizations that are not public business entities;

•

Eliminating the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; and

•

Requiring a reporting organization to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments.

The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new guidance permits early adoption of the own credit provision. In addition, the new guidance permits early adoption of the provision that exempts private companies and not-for-profit organizations from having to disclose fair value information about financial instruments measured at amortized cost. Adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2016 contain a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies. Certain of these policies are important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Management has identified as critical accounting policies the allowance for loan losses, intangible assets, mortgage servicing rights, hedge accounting and valuation measurements.

Allowance for Loan Losses

An allowance for loan losses is maintained to absorb probable incurred loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The determination of the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy that involves management’s ongoing quarterly assessments of the probable incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

HORIZON BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

And Results of Operations

For the Three and Six Months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016

The identification of loans that have probable incurred losses is subjective; therefore, a general reserve is maintained to cover all probable losses within the entire loan portfolio. Horizon utilizes a loan grading system that helps identify, monitor and address asset quality problems in an adequate and timely manner. Each quarter, various factors affecting the quality of the loan portfolio are reviewed. Large credits are reviewed on an individual basis for loss potential. Other loans are reviewed as a group based upon previous trends of loss experience. Horizon also reviews the current and anticipated economic conditions of its lending market as well as transaction risk to determine the effect they may have on the loss experience of the loan portfolio.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Management believes that the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets also involves a higher degree of judgment than most other significant accounting policies. FASB ASC 350-10 establishes standards for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and impairment assessment of goodwill. At June 30, 2017, Horizon had core deposit intangibles of $9.1 million subject to amortization and $77.6 million of goodwill, which is not subject to amortization. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired. Horizon’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of Horizon to provide quality, cost effective banking services in a competitive marketplace. The goodwill value is supported by revenue that is in part driven by the volume of business transacted. A decrease in earnings resulting from a decline in the customer base or the inability to deliver cost effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely affect earnings in future periods. FASB ASC 350-10 requires an annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment. The evaluation of goodwill for impairment requires the use of estimates and assumptions. Market price at the close of business on June 30, 2017 was $26.35 per share compared to a book value of $16.11 per common share.

Horizon has concluded that, based on its own internal evaluation, the recorded value of goodwill is not impaired.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through the sale of financial assets on a servicing-retained basis. Capitalized servicing rights are amortized into non-interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets. Servicing assets are evaluated regularly for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Impairment is determined by stratifying servicing rights by predominant characteristics, such as interest rates, original loan terms and whether the loans are fixed or adjustable rate mortgages. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. When the book value of an individual stratum exceeds its fair value, an impairment reserve is recognized so that each individual stratum is carried at the lower of its amortized book value or fair value. In periods of falling market interest rates, accelerated loan prepayment can adversely affect the fair value of these mortgage-servicing rights relative to their book value. In the event that the fair value of these assets was to increase in the future, Horizon can recognize the increased fair value to the extent of the impairment allowance but cannot recognize an asset in excess of its amortized book value. Future changes in management’s assessment of the impairment of these servicing assets, as a result of changes in observable market data relating to market interest rates, loan prepayment speeds, and other factors, could impact Horizon’s financial condition and results of operations either positively or negatively.

Generally, when market interest rates decline and other factors favorable to prepayments occur, there is a corresponding increase in prepayments as customers refinance existing mortgages under more favorable interest rate terms. When a mortgage loan is prepaid, the anticipated cash flows associated with servicing that loan are terminated, resulting in a reduction of the fair value of the capitalized mortgage servicing rights. To the extent that actual borrower prepayments do not react as anticipated by the prepayment model (i.e., the

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

And Results of Operations

For the Three and Six Months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016

historical data observed in the model does not correspond to actual market activity), it is possible that the prepayment model could fail to accurately predict mortgage prepayments and could result in significant earnings volatility. To estimate prepayment speeds, Horizon utilizes a third-party prepayment model, which is based upon statistically derived data linked to certain key principal indicators involving historical borrower prepayment activity associated with mortgage loans in the secondary market, current market interest rates and other factors, including Horizon’s own historical prepayment experience. For purposes of model valuation, estimates are made for each product type within the mortgage servicing rights portfolio on a monthly basis. In addition, on a quarterly basis Horizon engages a third party to independently test the value of its servicing asset.

Derivative Instruments

As part of the Company’s asset/liability management program, Horizon utilizes, from time-to-time, interest rate floors, caps or swaps to reduce the Company’s sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations. These are derivative instruments, which are recorded as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivatives are reported in the consolidated income statements or other comprehensive income (“OCI”) depending on the use of the derivative and whether the instrument qualifies for hedge accounting. The key criterion for the hedge accounting is that the hedged relationship must be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in those cash flows that are attributable to the hedged risk, both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis.

Horizon’s accounting policies related to derivatives reflect the guidance in FASB ASC 815-10. Derivatives that qualify for the hedge accounting treatment are designated as either: a hedge of the fair value of the recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (a fair value hedge) or a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (a cash flow hedge). For fair value hedges, the cumulative change in fair value of both the hedge instruments and the underlying loans is recorded in non-interest income. For cash flow hedges, changes in the fair values of the derivative instruments are reported in OCI to the extent the hedge is effective. The gains and losses on derivative instruments that are reported in OCI are reflected in the consolidated income statement in the periods in which the results of operations are impacted by the variability of the cash flows of the hedged item. Generally, net interest income is increased or decreased by amounts receivable or payable with respect to the derivatives, which qualify for hedge accounting. At inception of the hedge, Horizon establishes the method it uses for assessing the effectiveness of the hedging derivative and the measurement approach for determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge. The ineffective portion of the hedge, if any, is recognized currently in the consolidated statements of income. Horizon excludes the time value expiration of the hedge when measuring ineffectiveness.

Valuation Measurements

Valuation methodologies often involve a significant degree of judgment, particularly when there are no observable active markets for the items being valued. Investment securities, residential mortgage loans held for sale and derivatives are carried at fair value, as defined in FASB ASC 820, which requires key judgments affecting how fair value for such assets and liabilities is determined. In addition, the outcomes of valuations have a direct bearing on the carrying amounts of goodwill, mortgage servicing rights, and pension and other post-retirement benefit obligations. To determine the values of these assets and liabilities, as well as the extent, to which related assets may be impaired, management makes assumptions and estimates related to discount rates, asset returns, prepayment speeds and other factors. The use of different discount rates or other valuation assumptions could produce significantly different results, which could affect Horizon’s results of operations.

On June 30, 2017, Horizon’s total assets were $3.3 billion, an increase of approximately $180.0 million compared to December 31, 2016. The increase was primarily in net loans of $131.5 million, investment securities available for sale of $65.2 million and investment securities held to maturity of $6.3 million which were offset by decreases in Federal Reserve Bank stock of $9.0 million, other assets of $5.7 million, cash and due from banks of $4.8 million and loans held for sale of $4.4 million.

Total held to maturity investment securities	$	199,474	$	203,542	$	193,194	$	194,086

Total investment securities increased by approximately $71.5 million at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016, primarily due to the investing of cash received from the Bargersville branch purchase and the CNB merger and increasing earning assets due to lower mortgage warehouse balances.

Total loans increased $127.4 million since December 31, 2016 to $2.3 billion as of June 30, 2017. This increase was the result of an increase in commercial loans of $73.8 million, consumer loans of $51.8 million and residential mortgage loans of $18.1 million, offset by a decrease in mortgage warehouse loans of $12.0 million and a decrease in loans held for sale of $4.4 million. The growth markets of Fort Wayne, Grand Rapids, Indianapolis and Kalamazoo contributed total loan growth of $83.1 million during the first six months of 2017 leading to the increase in commercial loans. Additionally, the consumer loan increase was the result of a new seasoned consumer loan portfolio manager hired in the third quarter of 2016 and increasing our focus on the management of direct consumer loans.

Total deposits decreased $52.4 million since December 31, 2016 to $2.4 billion as of June 30, 2017. Interest bearing transaction accounts and time deposits decreased $46.5 million and $23.6 million, respectively, and were offset by increases in interest bearing deposit accounts of $5.7 million and non-interest bearing accounts of $12.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease in interest bearing transaction accounts and time deposits is primarily due to the seasonality of certain municipal deposit accounts.

The Company’s borrowings increased $217.8 million from December 31, 2016 to $485.3 million as of June 30, 2017. At June 30, 2017, the Company had $339.4 million in short-term funds borrowed compared to $189.0 million at December 31, 2016. The increase in borrowings was utilized to fund loan growth of $127.4 million and offset the decrease in total deposits of $52.4 million since December 31, 2016.

Stockholders’ equity totaled $357.3 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $340.9 million at December 31, 2016. The increase in stockholders’ equity during the period was the result of the generation of net income, net of dividends declared. At June 30, 2017, the ratio of average stockholders’ equity to average assets was 10.94% compared to 10.59% at December 31, 2016. Book value per common share at June 30, 2017 increased to $16.11 compared to $15.37 at December 31, 2016.

Results of Operations

Overview

Consolidated net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 was $9.1 million compared to $6.3 million for the same period in 2016. Earnings per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $0.41 basic and diluted, compared to $0.35 basic and diluted for the same three-month period in the previous year. The increase in net income and earnings per share from the previous year reflects an increase in net interest income of $6.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income of $1.1 million and increases in non-interest expense of $1.5 million, income tax expense of $895,000 and the diluted shares outstanding primarily due to the stock issued in the Kosciusko Financial, Inc. and LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. acquisitions. Non-interest expenses increased primarily due to an increase in salaries, employee benefits, net occupancy expenses, data processing expense and other expense. Excluding acquisition-related expenses, gain/losses on sale of investment securities and purchase accounting adjustments, net income for the second quarter of 2017 was $8.6 million or $0.39 diluted earnings per share compared to $6.9 million or $0.38 diluted earnings per share in the same period of 2016.

Consolidated net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2017 was $17.3 million compared to $11.7 million for the same period in 2016. Earnings per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $0.78 basic and $0.77 diluted, compared to $0.65 basic and $0.64 diluted for the same six-month period in the previous year. The increase in net income and earnings per share from the previous year reflects an increase in net interest income of $12.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income of $882,000 and increases in non-interest expense of $3.8 million, income tax expense of $2.0 million and the diluted shares outstanding primarily due to the stock issued in the Kosciusko Financial, Inc. and LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. acquisitions. Non-interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in salaries, employee benefits, net occupancy expenses, data processing expense and other expense. Excluding acquisition-related expenses, gains/losses on sale of investment securities and purchase accounting adjustments, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $16.1 million or $0.72 diluted earnings per share compared to $12.3 million or $0.68 diluted earnings per share in the same period of 2016.

Net Interest Income

The largest component of net income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, principally from loans and investment securities, and interest expense, principally on deposits and borrowings. Changes in the net interest income are the result of changes in volume and the net interest spread, which affects the net interest margin. Volume refers to the average dollar levels of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest spread refers to the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin refers to net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets and is influenced by the level and relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Net interest income during the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $27.2 million, an increase of $6.3 million from the $20.9 million earned during the same period in 2016. Yields on the Company’s interest-earning assets increased by 23 basis points to 4.33% for the three months ending June 30, 2017 from 4.10% for the three months ended June 30, 2016. Interest income increased $6.2 million from $24.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to $30.8 million for the same period in 2017. This was due to an increase in average interest-earning assets through organic and acquisition-related growth. Interest income from acquisition-related purchase accounting adjustments was $939,000 for the three months ending June 30, 2017 compared to $397,000 for the same period of 2016.

Rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 13 basis points for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 due to the continued low interest rate environment and shift in mix on interest-bearing liabilities. Interest expense decreased $174,000 compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 to $3.6 million for the same period in 2017. This decrease was due to lower average balances of borrowings in addition to lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and borrowings, partially offset by higher average balances of interest-bearing deposits. The rates paid on borrowings decreased as a result Horizon executing a strategy to reduce expensive funding costs in the fourth quarter of 2016.

The net interest margin increased 36 basis points from 3.48% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 to 3.84% for the same period in 2017. The increase in the margin for the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 was due to an increase in the yield on interest-earning assets and a reduction in the cost on interest-bearing liabilities. Excluding the interest income recognized from the acquisition-related purchase accounting adjustments, the margin would have been 3.71% for the three-month period ending June 30, 2017 compared to 3.42% for the same period in 2016.

Net interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $52.8 million, an increase of $12.1 million from the $40.6 million earned during the same period in 2016. Yields on the Company’s interest-earning assets increased by 19 basis points to 4.29% for the six months ending June 30, 2017 from 4.10% for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Interest income increased $11.5 million from $48.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $59.6 million for the same period in 2017. This was due to an increase in average interest-earning assets through organic and acquisition-related growth. Interest income from acquisition-related purchase accounting adjustments was $2.0 million for the six months ending June 30, 2017 compared to $944,000 for the same period of 2016.

Provision for Loan Losses

Horizon assesses the adequacy of its Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”) by regularly reviewing the performance of its loan portfolio. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2017, a provision of $330,000 was required to adequately fund the ALLL compared to $232,000 for the same period of 2016. Commercial loan net charge-offs during the three-month period ended June 30, 2017 were $24,000, residential mortgage loan net charge-offs were negative $8,000 and consumer loan net charge-offs were $341,000. The increase in the provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 was due to increased loan balances. The ALLL balance at June 30, 2017 was $15.0 million or 0.66% of total loans. This compares to an ALLL balance of $14.8 million at December 31, 2016 or 0.69% of total loans. The decrease in the ratio at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016 was due to an increase in loan balances, excluding loans held for sale, of $131.7 million.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2017, the provision for loan losses totaled $660,000 compared to $764,000 in the same period of 2016. The lower provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 was due to a decrease in net charge-offs.

Horizon’s loan loss reserve ratio, excluding loans with credit-related purchase accounting adjustments, stood at 0.82% as of June 30, 2017. Loan loss reserves and credit-related loan discounts on acquired loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.18% as of June 30, 2017. The table below illustrates Horizon’s loan loss reserve ratio composition as of June 30, 2017.

No assurance can be given that Horizon will not, in any particular period, sustain loan losses that are significant in relation to the amount reserved, or that subsequent evaluations of the loan portfolio, in light of factors then prevailing, including economic conditions and management’s ongoing quarterly assessments of the portfolio, will not require increases in the allowance for loan losses. Horizon considers the allowance for loan losses to be appropriate to cover probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2017.

Non-performing loans totaled $11.6 million as of June 30, 2017, up from $10.7 million as of December 31, 2016. Non-performing commercial, real estate and consumer loans increased by $362,000, $263,000 and $255,000, respectively, at June 30, 2017 compared to December 31, 2016.

Liquidity

The Bank maintains a stable base of core deposits provided by long-standing relationships with individuals and local businesses. These deposits are the principal source of liquidity for Horizon. Other sources of liquidity for Horizon include earnings, loan repayment, investment security sales and maturities, proceeds from the sale of residential mortgage loans, and borrowing relationships with correspondent banks, including the FHLB. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $4.8 million. At June 30, 2017, in addition to liquidity available from the normal operating, funding, and investing activities of Horizon, the Bank had approximately $181.2 million in unused credit lines with various money center banks, including the FHLB and the FRB Discount Window compared to $453.9 million at December 31, 2016 and $300.6 million at June 30, 2016.

Capital Resources

The capital resources of Horizon and the Bank exceeded regulatory capital ratios for “well capitalized” banks at June 30, 2017. Stockholders’ equity totaled $357.3 million as of June 30, 2017, compared to $340.9 million as of December 31, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the ratio of average stockholders’ equity to average assets was 11.03% compared to 10.22% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in stockholders’ equity during the period was the result of the generation of net income, net of dividends declared.

On February 1, 2016, the Company paid off the $12.5 million in funds received through the Small Business Lending Fund with cash from the holding company, thereby ending its participation in the program, pursuant to which it issued preferred stock to the US Treasury. The funds were paid off due to an increase in the dividend cost that would have gone in effect at the end of February 2016.

Horizon declared common stock dividends in the amount of $0.24 per share during the first six months of 2017 and $0.20 per share for the same period of 2016. The dividend payout ratio (dividends as a percent of basic earnings per share) was 30.8% and 30.8% for the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively. For additional information regarding dividends, see Horizon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2016.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain information set forth in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q refers to financial measures determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, we have included non-GAAP financial measures of the net interest margin and the allowance for loan and lease losses excluding the impact of acquisition-related purchase accounting adjustments and net income and diluted earnings per share excluding the impact of one-time costs related to acquisitions, acquisition-related purchase accounting adjustments and other events that are considered to be non-recurring. Horizon believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are helpful to investors and provide a greater understanding of our business without giving effect to the purchase accounting impacts and one-time costs of acquisitions and non-core items, although these measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measure.
